Anyone going? What sort of team do you think will be put out. Looking forward to it, first match for me this season.

cant see anyone playing who played yesterday, and ballotelli landed back yesterday so im thinking nasri milner hart lescott clichy etc wont play, so it wont be the best side weve put out. maybe a few bigger names might make the trip to wolfsburg, and a prety poor side v limerick, then its the charity shield on the 12th.

I think we will be looking at Dzeko, Balo, Silva, Hart, Lescott, and any other first team players who haven't travelled....plus a few EDS players.

Is this being streamed anywhere tonight?....or indeed on TV?

I am going, will be good to offer support to Dickov too for all the work he did for us. Lescott has treated that he is looking forward to the game so expect him to play

I'd be surprised if it was anything other than kids to be honest.

I can see where you're coming from but I don't think that is the case. many of those internationals who arrived late from their holidays don't have a single minute of football under their belts yet and the season begins in three weeks. I'm expecting a strong line-up but also lots of changes at HT

Yeah, to be honest it seems i was completely wrong!

I had a look for the river flow....seems to be a bit light on the ground at the moment, we'll see.

Ah should be well worth the trip then, looking forward to it!

Can watch the Premier League season review instead on ESPN at 8.30pm BST

The mighty Santa Cruz starting

CITY TEAM: Hart, Wabara, Clichy, Facey, McGivern, Lescott, Milner, De Jong (C), Santa Cruz, Nasri, Jelavic.

CITY SUBS: Lawlor, Kennedy, Leigh, Glendon, Huws, Drury, Rusnak, Hiwula, Bunn, Henshall

off topic, imo some of these lads should've been on the tour... instead of Mancini's kid and Scapuzzi

Are they showing this on the OS? Can't see it.

Not on LOF. Shits gay.

apart from the fact Oldham are 1 up it seems fans are enjoying it. here's some tweets about the game:

"4. Goal! Oldham 1-0 City. Robbie Simpson with a lovely finish."
"#mcfc 1-0 down, Robbie Simpson, Lescott & Hart caught cold "

"11. Corner to City. Nasri's cross is cleared but to Clichy. His cross lands to Jelavic... Must score! No! Wide. Great chance!"

"12. "Shall we show you how to score?" sing the Oldham fans. Good friendly atmosphere here tonight. On the pitch it's no friendly!"

"13. City fans respond with "three stands, you've only got three stands" which is applauded by the Oldham faithful."

"14. It's taken fourteen minutes but the first Dickov chant is heard and the former Blue applauds the City fans. City possession... "

Lol sounds like a good friendly.

Going to watch this review on ESPN at 8:30 :)

Anyone know the score? Cannae find it anywhere.

1-0 to Oldham at HT.
our trialist missed a few chances according to twitter and we hit the post too. apparently lots of changes coming up if we're to believe Chris Bailey
"Half time 1 down but had chances to be level jelovic missed sitter, Milner shot well saved. All change at the break is my info #MCFC"

Keep us posted mate.

Cheers.

46. Back under way. 3-1-4-2 is the formation I'm going for. De Jong the 1. Clichy, Nasri, Milner and Facey the 4.
